Having our students selected is a fabulous achievement. The programme will be very valuable experience not only for them but also for others around them who will benefit through their participation.”

The three-to-four–month-long programme provides intensive training in essential knowledge and skills for future leaders. It includes tailored workshops, lectures and seminars led by experts in leadership.

There will also be one-to-one mentoring and access to an online ‘community of practice’ which allows students and mentors to interact and debate, and provides access to e-learning material.
